Assignment 1Intro Theme - Create an 8 - 10 second intro theme that you can use at the beginning of your movies. This should be an 'anouncement' or an attempt to get people's attention to watch your video and see you production logo (which you will create in Photoshop and animate in Final Cut). Make it bright and attention getting! Assignment 2 - Background music - Create 10 - 20 seconds of subtle music that you can use in the background of a video underneath narration or just when there is no dialogue or foreground song. Keep this one simple and melodic. Assignment 3 - Your Song - Create 30 seconds or more of a song. This should have multiple tracks, variable volumes on different tracks, some solos. Feel free to play with panning and other track effects and voices
